West Ham boss Zola: Man Utd pair Scholes, Giggs great example

West Ham United boss Gianfranco Zola paid tribute to Manchester United veterans Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes after their 4-0 defeat.

Zola says the pair were setting examples his own young players would do well to follow.

He told whufc.com: "A player like Scholes, I'd like to see him play for a long time. He's a fantastic competitor and his goal killed us. They are champions because they have players like him. They never give up. They know how to win the games and that was the story. They might be 35 and 36 but they don't look like it."
